Reactions & Observations
- The opening 30 minutes of the first half were very difficult for Barça, as Celta came out with an aggressive and attacking plan and passed the ball easily through the lines, creating big chances that forced Joan Garcia into important interventions early on.
- Barça had a lot of trouble keeping the ball and were outplayed by Celta for most of that time, and only had a couple of dangerous attacks that ended with shots from Lamine Yamal that went wide of the mark.
- The Catalans eventually started to play better towards the end of the half, and their best chance finally came when Yamal was fouled by inside the box. Lamine scored the penalty to put Barça ahead, but he also suffered a hamstring injury while kicking the ball and had to be replaced in a bittersweet moment for the teenager and the home team.
